“I’ve been living in my house for 5 years, and I knew eventually I would need a major project like a roof replacement. I found 4 Seasons Company, and I’m very happy with the results. Their communication was easy and professional, they were flexible with scheduling, never rushed the process, and the work was completed with great quality. I highly recommend them to anyone needing roofing services.”
“Four Seasons Construction just cured my 6 year roof headache. After moving into a house with a roof that was replaced the year before, I was constantly dealing with leaks and shoddy workmanship that the other company would take months to resolve. Four Seasons came to look at the roof, found all the problems, and fixed it to perfection in no time. I can finally sleep at night thanks to these guys! You're the best!!!”
“I hired Four Seasons Construction for my roof replacement project in Woodland Park NJ. They did an amazing job the price was reasonable they also gave me 30 Years warranty. I’m very happy with their service. I would highly recommend them to anyone and my friends and family. Thanks Ben and his crew for your service.”

A roof replacement in Washington Borough has its own rhythm. This is the old organ-manufacturing town, and the Victorians that went up during that late-1800s boom were framed with steep pitches, layered gables, dormers, and ornate detail that take real planning to re-roof. Mix in the post-WWII homes that filled in around civic buildings like Memorial School, and one borough holds two very different roofing jobs. We work out of Clifton and run west along the Route 31 and Route 57 corridor for these, and Washington replacements have been part of our calendar for years. This page covers how the job actually goes here, what the borough expects, and what moves the number, so you can plan with real information instead of a door-knocker's guess. Serving all of Washington: Roofing in Washington.
Repair-First Diagnosis
One bad valley on an otherwise sound roof calls for roof repair in Washington, not a tear-off, and we will say so when that is what we find.
One to Three Days
Most Washington replacements run one to three days of actual roofing, with the steep, cut-up Victorians at the longer end because staging and safety lines take time on a twelve-pitch.
Itemized Estimates
The estimate you get is itemized so you can see each decision, from material tier to decking allowance to flashing and venting, and change them before you sign.
How You Know the Roof Is Done

Some Washington roofs announce the end loudly. On the older Victorians, slates slide off and shatter on the walk, and ornate ridge detail starts to come apart at the seams. The post-WWII houses go quieter: granules wash into the gutters, three-tab asphalt cracks when a gust lifts it, and a stain blooms on a bedroom ceiling after a long stretch of rain. The honest test is whether the failures are local or everywhere. When every slope is brittle and the patches are multiplying, each new repair is rent on a roof you should be replacing, and the math finally favors doing it once and doing it right.
Slate and the Victorian Roofs
Plenty of Washington's organ-era homes still carry their original slate, and a hundred-year-old slate roof deserves a careful conversation. Sometimes the slate itself is fine and only the fasteners and flashings have died, which is restoration territory rather than replacement. When the slate is delaminating across whole slopes, owners face a fork: new slate, which is beautiful and expensive, or a heavyweight designer shingle that reads like slate from the street. GAF and CertainTeed both make lines built for exactly this swap, and they carry a fraction of the weight, which matters on framing that was never sistered for modern loads. We walk you through both paths with samples in hand. On these steep, multi-gable Victorian roofs, the wrong texture on a prominent slope is visible from the sidewalk, so we treat appearance as part of the spec, not an afterthought.

Tear-Off, Not Layover, on These Houses
New Jersey allows a second layer of shingles in some situations. We almost never recommend it on Washington's older homes, and the framing is the reason. The Victorian-era houses sit on plank decking, individual boards nailed over rafters cut long before plywood existed. A layover hides whatever those boards have been through for a century. Tear-off exposes the deck so rot, split boards, and old leak damage get fixed instead of buried, and it lets us install ice and water membrane directly on the wood at the eaves and valleys, where Warren County winters do their worst. It also keeps weight off old rafters. The dumpster and the labor cost more up front. The roof above your family for the next forty years is worth that difference, and we will show you photos of your own deck so the decision is never abstract.
Decking: Budget for Surprises Honestly
The part of a Washington estimate nobody sees coming is wood. Once the old roof is off, some percentage of those antique planks will need replacing, and on a Victorian with a long patch history that percentage climbs. We handle this in the open: the contract states a per-board or per-sheet price for replacement decking before work starts, the crew photographs every section that gets swapped, and you approve anything beyond the allowance before it happens. Chimneys deserve the same honesty. Many of these older homes have two or three brick stacks punching through the roof, and replacement day is the cheapest moment you will ever have to rebuild their flashing and patch their crowns, because the shingles around them are already off.

Shingles That Belong on a Washington Street
For homes moving from old asphalt to new, architectural shingles are the standard answer, and the GAF and CertainTeed lines we install hold up well across Warren County. They are thicker than the three-tabs they replace, rated for far higher wind, and shaped with shadow lines that suit older architecture. For the organ-era Victorians, the designer tiers mimic slate and shake convincingly. Underneath, the assembly matters as much as the surface: synthetic underlayment over the field, ice and water shield at eaves, valleys, and around every chimney and dormer, new drip edge, and ridge venting sized to what the attic actually needs. Ventilation done wrong cooks shingles from below and feeds the ice dams these eaves are prone to in a cold western-Jersey winter.
Permits and the Borough
Washington Borough requires a building permit for roof replacement, and we pull it as part of the job rather than leaving paperwork on the homeowner. Some of the borough's oldest properties carry historic standing, including the United Methodist Church on Washington Avenue, which sits on the National Register, so if your house is a recognized older structure, visible exterior changes can need an extra look before work starts. We flag that early in the estimate process so it never stalls a scheduled crew. Inspections happen at the borough's pace, and the permit file becomes part of your records, which buyers and their attorneys ask about when a house changes hands. Skipping the permit to save a week is a false economy, because an unpermitted roof surfaces at closing and becomes your problem at the worst possible moment.

What the Week Looks Like
Materials arrive a day or so ahead. On work days the crew protects the landscaping and tarps the beds, because the gardens on these lots are not negotiable. Tear-off is loud through the morning, the deck gets repaired and dried in the same day so the house never sleeps exposed, and shingling follows. Every day ends with a cleanup and a magnetic sweep of the lawn, walks, and driveway. When the job is done you get the photos, the permit closure, and the warranty registration in writing, with our two-year workmanship warranty behind the labor and material backing that runs up to fifty years on the products themselves.
What Moves the Number
We do not publish prices because no two of these roofs cost the same, but we will tell you exactly what drives yours. Pitch and height come first, since steep slate-era Victorian framing needs more staging and slower work. Then complexity: every dormer, valley, and chimney adds flashing hours. Decking condition, the number of old layers coming off, material tier from standard architectural up to designer slate-look, and access on tight lots, whether off a stretch of Route 57 or a narrow side street near Route 31, all push the figure one way or the other. Our roof replacement overview explains the general process if you want the statewide picture first. Homeowners aged 65-plus and military families take an extra $500 off, and we run 0% financing for budgets that need to spread the work out.

Storm Damage and Insurance
Wind and summer gust fronts take a real toll on Washington's exposed upper slopes, and wind damage on an aging roof is often what forces the replacement decision. When a storm is the cause, documentation decides how the claim goes. We photograph everything before touching it, tie the damage to the storm date, and write the scope in the line-item format adjusters expect. We will also tell you plainly when the damage is wear an insurer will not cover, because filing a doomed claim costs you goodwill and gains nothing. Either way you end up with a dated record of the roof's condition and a written path forward.
More Help in Washington
Before committing to a tear-off, it is worth a look at roof repair in Washington, because we tell plenty of homeowners their roof has years left. If a storm forced the decision overnight, emergency roof repair in Washington is the fast lane, and siding in Washington often makes sense on the same project. The hub page for roofing in Washington ties all of it together. We also handle roof replacement in nearby Phillipsburg and Hackettstown, and every town we cover is listed in one place.

Questions Washington Homeowners Ask
Washington has two very different kinds of houses. Which are we?
One borough really does hold two roofing jobs. The Victorians from the late-1800s organ-manufacturing boom were framed with steep pitches, layered gables, dormers, and ornate detail that take real time, while the post-WWII homes that filled in around civic buildings like Memorial School are a straightforward tear-off. The quote follows whichever you own.
Is the permit different because this is a borough in Washington?
It goes through borough offices rather than a township construction office. We file it as part of the job and schedule the work around inspection timing.
How long should we expect in Washington?
Most Washington replacements run one to three days of actual roofing, with the steep, cut-up Victorians at the longer end because staging and safety lines take time on that pitch.
What about the ornate trim on the older homes?
It gets worked around rather than through, and we flag before starting which details need hand work instead of discovering it mid-tear-off.
What is the warranty?
Two years on workmanship, up to fifty on manufacturer materials, and we are licensed in New Jersey under HIC #13VH11720500.

Who Signs Off on the Work in Washington
When a job here needs a permit, it goes through the Washington building department, and their inspector is the one who signs it off. We pull that permit and schedule around the inspection, so the paperwork is our problem rather than yours. Ordinary repairs usually do not need one. Structural and replacement work generally does.
The company behind the crew is registered with the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs as a home improvement contractor, NJ HIC #13VH11720500. You can check that on the state licence verification portal before you hire us, or anyone else. We install GAF and Owens Corning roofing systems; we are not enrolled in either manufacturer's contractor certification program, and we would rather tell you that than imply a badge we do not hold.
How a Job Actually Runs
You reach out
Call (862) 318-3997 or send the form. We do not need the whole story up front, just the address and what you are seeing.
Free inspection
We come out and look at the roof. The inspection is free and there is no obligation either way.
We photograph what we find
A photo of a cracked boot or a rusted valley settles the question faster than a paragraph, so you see the roof rather than hear about it.
Written itemized estimate
The material tier and the decking allowance are broken out as their own numbers, so you can change any of them before you sign.
The work
We tear off rather than lay over on almost every house, because a layover means nobody ever looks at the deck. Bad boards get replaced as we find them and photographed one at a time.
After the job
Decking is billed against the allowance written into the contract before anyone climbed a ladder, and the work carries a 2-year workmanship warranty with a 50-year manufacturer warranty on the material.
